Sorry, but dlltool isn't designed for this. You can use a combination
of 'nm' and 'sed' etc if the DLL doesn't have symbols stripped.

Actually, the pointer I gave was a version by Colin Peters, which
coincidentally has the same name as Borland's one. I also suppliedo
in that message an URL to a microsoft's version that you can download.
One of these, I'll just break down and write one of these from scratch
so that there is no copyright/licensing issues with the ones you get
from the net. That day may be far away however ...
